Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of low-temperature methanol washing, and specifically relates to a method for purifying low-temperature and low-sulfur synthesis gas for a coal water slurry gasification device and a device for purifying low-temperature and low-sulfur synthesis gas for a coal water slurry gasification device. Background Art
[0002] In the synthesis gas produced by using the coal water slurry gasification technology, H 2 and CO are called effective gases. At the same time, the synthesis gas also contains a large amount of CO 2 and trace amounts of H 2 S, COS, NH 3 , HCN and other components. Among them, H 2 and CO are the raw material gases for synthesizing chemical products such as methanol, ammonia, and ethylene glycol after adjusting the hydrogen-carbon ratio through the shift unit. The acidic gases CO 2 and H 2 S in the synthesis gas are generally poisons for synthesis catalysts, so they must be removed before the synthesis process.
[0003] The low-temperature methanol washing technology uses low-temperature methanol as the absorption solvent, and utilizes the characteristic that low-temperature methanol has a great solubility for acidic gases to remove H 2 S and CO 2 and other acidic gases in the synthesis gas, and at the same time removes trace components such as HCN and NH 3 . At present, the innovative research on the low-temperature methanol washing technology mainly focuses on the recycling of the pressure-reducing flash evaporation of rich CO 2 methanol. The typical process flow mainly includes the lean liquid-semi-lean liquid process, but there are technical bottlenecks in further optimizing and innovating the lean liquid-semi-lean liquid process. Therefore, it is necessary to appropriately adjust the technical innovation direction of the low-temperature methanol washing process.
[0004] In the low-temperature methanol washing process flow, the rich CO 2 methanol can be recycled through pressure-reducing flash evaporation, but the H 2 S-containing methanol must be recycled through thermal regeneration, which is the main energy-consuming source of low-temperature methanol washing. Therefore, how to enhance the use efficiency of H 2 S-containing methanol is the key factor in technological innovation.
[0005] CN201110260570.0 discloses a low-temperature methanol washing process. First, in the H 2 S absorption tower, all rich CO 2 methanol is used to wash the synthesis gas, which increases the usage amount of rich CO 2 methanol. The generated rich H 2 S methanol needs to be thermally regenerated before it can be recycled, resulting in high energy consumption. Second, in the CO 2 flash evaporation section of the reabsorption tower, rich CO2 Methanol is used to wash the rich H 2 S methanol flash vapor while directly mixing with the rich H 2 S methanol, and itself is contaminated by the rich H 2 S methanol, and the resulting low-concentration H 2 S methanol is sent to the post-system regeneration without being fully utilized, resulting in high energy consumption; thirdly, the CO 2 gas flashed out from the upper tower of the medium-pressure flash tower is contaminated while being washed by the rich H 2 S methanol, which is not conducive to reducing the comprehensive energy consumption of the cold methanol washing unit. Summary of the Invention

[0009] Among them, the first semi-lean methanol is divided into three streams. The A-stream semi-lean methanol is returned and subjected to the above-mentioned CO 2 absorption. The B-stream semi-lean methanol is subjected to a second washing with the CO 2 flashed gas obtained from the CO 2 flash evaporation. The C-stream semi-lean methanol is subjected to a third washing with the H 2 flashed gas obtained from the H 2 S flash evaporation to obtain low-sulfur carbon-rich methanol;
[0010] Among them, the low-H 2 methanol containing sulfur, the first rich-CO 2 methanol, and the low-sulfur carbon-rich methanol are each independently returned and subjected to the above-mentioned H 2 S absorption.

[0012] The syngas enters the H 2 S absorption tower for H 2 S absorption to obtain the first rich-H 2 methanol containing sulfur and desulfurized gas; the desulfurized gas enters the CO 2 absorption tower for CO 2 absorption to obtain the rich-CO 2 methanol, which is divided into two streams. The first rich-CO 2 methanol is recycled and used in the H 2 S absorption tower. The second rich-CO 2 methanol enters the CO 2 flash evaporation section after passing through the first cooler for CO 2 flash evaporation to obtain the flashed rich-CO 2 methanol, which is divided into two streams.
